Don t believe it, these five people in the NBA are the most fierce in fast breaking. Wade is only ranked fourth.

Fast attack is not as simple as running fast. It is a manifestation of offense and defense awareness, and it is the sum of instant judgment, burst speed, ball rights handling ability and ending methods. Some players are not eye-catching when they advance regularly, but once they change their attack, they are like igniting the Rockets and instantly overturning the opponent's defense.

Fifth place: Ja Morant's career data: Average 22.5 points, 7.4 assists, 4.8 rebounds, and 47.2% from the field. What does Morant's fast break look like most? It's like an undrawn arrow, and it's crazy when it is released. He is 1.91 meters tall, but he has the striker-like air stagnation and explosive power of the first step. Even with his point guard, he has the ability to finish every fast break. When he intercepted the Rockets in 2023, he only took 3 seconds to complete the full-game raid + tomahawk dunk. The audience exclaimed, "This guy can fly." He doesn't need cover, he can finish the end as long as he has half a seat. Especially when the opponent makes a mistake and the defense line is not formed, he is one of the most dangerous existences in the fast attack.

4th place: Dwyne Wade

Career data: Average of 22.0 points, 5.4 assists, 4.7 rebounds, 48.0% from the field, Wade's fast attack lethality comes from his unparalleled physical control and air-end diversity. At his peak, he could complete the buckle by turning around from the frontcourt, and even if he was blocked, he could change the lever to complete 2+1. He is not the kind of player who passes off defense by speed, but he relies on the misalignment of rhythm - first cheating the rhythm and then accelerating the explosion. In the four games after the G3 of the 2006 Finals, he frequently made counterattacks, averaging 34.7 points in the entire series, which is the ultimate reflection of the combination of fast attack + fouls. His fast attack is a stable killer move, the kind that you pay the price when you make a mistake.

Third place: Russell Westbrook

Career data: Average of 21.9 points, 7.3 rebounds, 8.5 assists, and 43.8% shooting percentage: "Westbrook is like a train" is not a metaphor, it is the truth. At his peak, he got the rebound and went straight to one-stop, not giving his teammates time to run. He has strong breakthroughs, intensive steps, and even the defender can't hold on. In the 2017 MVP season, he made fast break scores (8.5 points per game) and was the first in the season. In the game against the Grizzlies, he scored 23 points and 3 assists in a single fast break, which basically changed the trend of the game by himself. Even in the late stage of his career, as long as he rushes, his damage should not be underestimated. His fast break is truly "from rebounds to scores, one person is responsible for it."

Second place: Giannis Antetokounmpo

Career data: Average of 23.9 points, 9.8 rebounds, 4.8 assists, and 54.7% from the field, Antetokounmpo's fast break is not called a running attack, but a "long-distance crush." At 2.11 meters, he has the propulsion speed of the point guard + the finishing radius of the power forward. He often starts from the three-point line and does not need to accelerate, and reaches the basket in three steps. In 2022, he dribbled the ball from the backcourt across the half court in just 8 seconds, changed direction and dunked one step after passing Claude, and returned to defend and blocked Booker in the next round. His fast break is not for pulling the rhythm, but for harvesting the game. He almost doesn't need tactics. As long as you miss the ball, Antetokounmpo can score a single counterattack or create a 2+1.

No. 1: LeBron James

Career data: Average of 27.1 points, 7.5 rebounds, 7.4 assists, and 50.6% from the shooting percentage

Who is the most stable in the fast attack? It's always James. His ability to read, promote conversion rhythms, and choose ending methods is perfect. Not only can he complete the counter-dunk himself, but he can also observe the passing route in the air, and he is like a high-speed processor when advancing. In the 2012 Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics, James completed a change of direction behind the scenes in the fourth quarter and a one-handed slash, assisting Wade in another counterattack to complete an all-time contact. This is not a physical talent, but a manifestation of comprehensive judgment + confidence. During his fast attack, "the whole game was his runway", and as long as he started, there was almost no solution. He is the smartest and deadliest fast attack ruler in the NBA.
